American cars are poorly built, no doubt about it

okay, so you're judging all american cars based on this '93 Mustang? not quite fair to the rest of American cars to be honest. i've been in Saabs from that era, and the build quality is just as bad.

whatever though, ignorant people will do anything they can to diss american cars...

First of all I know that SAAB:s aren't the best cars in the world (owned GM btw) but that doesn't change a thing about the build quality concerning american cars. And it's well known that many american cars are poorly built. Just because you're american you shouldn't take this personal. Last of all I think you should go out and get yourself a sense of humor. If you think I judge a whole car industry after one old Mustang I feel really sorry for you. Maybe you didn't understand the smiley..

It's rather funny that you say that the build quality of SAAB:s "Is just as bad". Freudian slip maybe?

Actually, that was pretty impressive, how that thing launched and the mirror pretty much snapped.

I think you guys are lookin at this all wrong. Its not that the build quality is crap, its just that the car has so much power its tearing the car apart.
